I met Patrick’s mom.
The odds of the interaction I just had are almost incomprehensible. I was out for my afternoon walk in undisclosed city. I saw a group of three ladies that were probably in their mid 60’s. One of them had a shirt with the WSO logo. I said “I like your shirt” fully expecting for her to have no idea what the blue monkey means. We then chatted and it turns out she is Patrick Curtis’s mom. I told her to tell Patrick thank you for the help as WSO has been essential in my job search. The odds of this happening are just wild… Patrick, your mom is a very nice woman and I will never forget this interaction lolol
Wow, what a small world it is! It's always a delight to hear about these unexpected encounters. I'm sure Patrick would be thrilled to hear about this. It's heartwarming to know that the WSO community extends beyond the digital world. And yes, the odds of such an encounter are indeed wild! It's great to hear that WSO has been essential in your job search. Keep up the good work and remember, as I always say, "My Mind told me to stop, but my Heart would not let me". Keep chasing your dreams!

“keep up the good work” … this bot clearly has a thing for Patrick’s mom and it’s pretty weird tbh
you had one chance to to do the funniest thing possible and you didn't do it... pussy
I think they got a kick out of it. My aunt left me a voicemail... Thanks for the kind words!
Lmao this is amazing
Your aunt is awesome for repping your shirt
Yep. She was also the head of school for the elite Deerfield Academy for like 10 years. Little known fact…
That means the building I lived in was tangentially related to the Chief Monkey Officer
Haha you went to Deerfield? Same here
Wow tiny world.
Wait ... Patrick is probs pushing 50 now yet his mom and aunt are mid 60s?
ouch, the grey beard and balding makes me look 50 now? 43 :-)
Mature and wise :-)
You should have invited them out for mimosas to honor the special occasion.
But does she got it going on?
Congrats on Patrick’s mom
This forum is the best
Love these wholesome posts. Cheers
What are the odds!!! Awesome
